Definitions: What Was the Herero and Nama Genocide?

Before Auschwitz, there was Namibia. In this powerful episode, we define the Herero and Nama genocide the first genocide of the 20th century, carried out by German colonial forces in Southwest Africa.

Tens of thousands were killed, displaced, and imprisoned in concentration camps. Germany has since acknowledged it, but the silence around this atrocity remains loud.

This is a story of violence, resistance, and the importance of remembering. Because if we don’t tell it, who will?
